Nordost Valhalla with balanced ends XLR 88" or 2.25M interconnect

dealer floor demo. -    authenticity warranted. - 2 ends come with dealer demo green shrink wrap.
i went with sosna elation for a change.. sorry no manual no box . 

The Valhalla Reference Analog Interconnect (rya termination) is a true reference cable, top of the line by Nordost and only superseded by NORDOST's Valhalla II (which retails $10,000 for a 2m interconnect) and ODIN ($20,000 for one 2m interconnect).

The Valhalla interconnect consists of 8 conductors made from solid, optimized diameter 99.999999% oxygen free copper, each with 78 microns of extruded silver on the surface. That surface is highly polished before a precision micro mono-filament wrap is applied. A precision FEP tube is then extruded over each conductor. The eight FEP tubes are then bonded with a proprietary technique to create a tubular interconnect cable, enclosed in a dual layer of silver shielding. This design reduces dielectric contact by more than 80% yet offers extreme mechanical stability, despite the fact that the conductors are effectively suspended in inert air, preventing oxidation. It’s a configuration that provides the basis for the subsequent Norse series cables. Valhalla interconnect is extremely fast at over 87% the speed of light. When it comes to transmitting wide bandwidth signals with incredible speed and minimum phase shift this cable is effectively state of the art, bettered only by the mighty Odin. It delivers incredible transient response and dynamic resolution so that no musical detail is lost, allowing you to follow complex and difficult recordings with ease. Each Valhalla interconnect cable is hand built with WBT NextGen RCA phono plugs or gold XLR connectors.
